Abstract: An incorrect copy of a record of data can be prevented from being transmitted to a distributed ledger system. A first file can be received and can include information, in audio or video form, with a description of a subject matter of the record of data and with an authorization to transmit the copy to the distributed ledger system. The first file can be sent to a device. A second file can be received from the device and can include information that confirms that the description of the subject matter, included in the first file, is correct, and that confirms that an entity, which controlled production of the first file, has permission to authorize causing the copy to be transmitted to the distributed ledger system. The correct copy can be caused, based on a receipt of the first and the second files, to be transmitted to the distributed ledger system.

Abstract: Methods and systems to commission building environmental sensors are disclosed. The system includes a device that will move about the environment of a building (inside and/or outside) and detect building environmental sensor devices that are installed in the environment. For each of the sensor devices, in response to detecting the sensor device, the system will retrieve an identifier for the sensor device, and it will determine whether the sensor device is registered with a control system. If the sensor device is registered with the control system, the system will not automatically implement a commissioning process with the sensor device. If the sensor device is not registered with the control system, the system will automatically implement the commissioning process with the sensor device.

Abstract: A heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) control system is provided. The system includes one or more sources of controlled air, a network of portable sensors that are configured to measure one or more parameters of an environment, one or more environmental condition controllers that are configured to operate the one or more sources of controlled air, and a computing device, including a processor and memory. The memory stores programming instructions that are configured to, when executed, cause the processor to generate an initial lumped-element model of the environment, update the initial lumped-element model using the one or more parameters of the environment to generate an adapted lumped-element model of the environment, and cause the one or more environmental condition controllers to adjust an output of the one or more sources of controlled air based on the adapted lumped-element model.

Abstract: A photodialysis device that can desalinate saline streams is described herein. The device can have a desalination rate that is significantly faster than current solar thermal desalination technology. Salt is removed from water by passing ionic current derived from sunlight through this water using dye-sensitized membranes. The device can serve as a distributed, low-cost technology that can efficiently and effectively desalinate low salinity sources of water, which is particularly useful for agriculture and drinking water applications.

Abstract: A document review system is configured to quickly provide search results for large amounts of documents. Ontology templates are used to generate objects and links based on the documents. Users can view documents, and linked objects and object properties can be displayed. An index assisted search can be performed to determine the linked objects and object properties. A supplemental search can be performed on a second database that tracks modifications to the documents or objects. The modifications in the second database can be periodically written to the first database, and the index can be rebuilt. The user experience can be free of slow searches and slow index rebuilds.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates generally to Cyclin-dependent kinase 2 (CDK2) inhibiting chemical compounds and uses thereof in the inhibition of the activity of CDK2. The disclosure also provides pharmaceutically acceptable compositions comprising compounds disclosed herein and methods of using said compounds and compositions in the treatment of various disorders related to CDK2 activity.

Abstract: A thin form of an electrical connector for creating a detachable connection between two circuit elements is disclosed. When the connector is employed, only an outer electrode present on a portion of the connector is exposed to the ambient environment and the rest of the electronics of both the connector and of a device into which the device is integrated can be insulated from the ambient environment. The parts of the connector can create a small three-dimensional interlock structure to seal off contact area and to facilitate electrical contacts between two circuit elements. The connector structure is flexible, allowing the connector to be embedded into a curved surface of a device that can use the electrode exposed to the environment to obtain data regarding the environment.

Abstract: Various embodiments are directed to a method for docking a robotic platform. The method may include receiving a robotic platform onto a ramp of a docking station. The docking station may include the ramp, a roller assembly, a base pad, and a roller backstop assembly. The ramp may have a first side and a second side opposing the first side. The method may further include guiding, by the roller assembly, the robotic platform as the robotic platform is being driven onto ramp such that the robotic platform continues powered travel over the ramp when the robotic platform approaches the ramp within an angle range of 0 and 15 degrees with respect to either of the first and second sides of the ramp. The method may further include receiving, by the roller backstop assembly, the robotic platform from the roller assembly and then docking the robotic platform.

Abstract: A resonant structure includes a conductive surface layer on a dielectric layer that produces an enhanced or reduced backscattered radiation in one or more resonant frequency bands when illuminated with electromagnetic energy. A transmitter illuminates the resonant structure with the electromagnetic energy at a first angle relative to the normal of the conductive surface. A receiver is operable to detect the enhanced or reduced backscattered radiation at the resonant frequency bands at a second angle relative to the normal of the conductive surface. The second angle is different from the first angle by at least five degrees. A processor coupled to the receiver and is operable to detect data encoded in one or both of a frequency response and a polarization response of the resonant structure based on the detected enhanced or reduced backscattered radiation.
